+1 on most cars you may loose up to 10% of power to run the pump

well if you looked over the a/c system you'd see that the pump runs of the motor. hence when turned on its going to place a load on the engine...
even my gf knows to turn off the aircon if she wants to attempt a hill in her getz, and she has no car knowledge whatsoever, which is why i wasnt sure if you were serious.
and shadow i think its closer to 5% ;)
but ill let you know exactly next time im at the dyno.
Alot better with modern cars...
80s car the air con really sucks the power

Aircon sucks alot out of my poor 1.8 :(
i have the best air conditioning in the astra. just wind down the windows and the faster i drive, the more ac i get. ive had the car for over a year now and have only used the ac for cold and hot 5 or so times. dad uses it all the time though
Picked up Eibach springs yesterday.
